Flash in the Pan

Roberta harrumphed when she saw it. For a moment, she just stood there contemplating closing the oven door…leaving it to smolder until it was nothing more than a pan full of ashes.

She looked up at the clock. There were only four hours left before her partner would walk through the door. She did the mental math on how long it had taken her to destroy this meal.

The telephone number chanted through her mind. With a resigned sigh, she dialed the number, thinking, One day, someone is going to figure it out.

“Yes. I need to place an order. To go.”

Oh, me, too. Everyone knows I cook. Fortunately, I invite people over whenn it is not time to eat. 😉 I make the world’s best fajitas and egg rolls. Top notch. Unless you count lasagna and beef Wellington. Well, and then there is breakfast. OK, I am hungry. I think Cat may be onto something…time for some more recipes!

Hmmm… yummy 🙂 I’ll have to come back and see what Cat said in the a.m., I tired.

Wha’happans when they stay until it ‘is” time to eat? hahaha!!! Pizza!!! 🙂

That’s so cool, that little star thing over there changes every time I post all by itself. LOL! It’s the little things. You outta see how I react to color… that’s cool. 🙂Mysterycoach recently posted..~ How People Communicate ~

Red, I can cook or bake almost anything decently if necessary. I really like cooking. One of my favorites is sauteed beef with mushrooms, zucchini, onions and garlic served over rice…. “:)raymond alexander kukkee recently posted..Jack Frost and the Great 2012 Heap Update
